Unlocking the Power of AI: The Art and Science of Prompt Engineering
As we navigate the rapidly evolving landscape of Artificial Intelligence (AI), one skill has emerged as a critical component in harnessing the true potential of AI systems: Prompt Engineering. Generative AI, powered by Large Language Models (LLMs) like OpenAI’s GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer) series, has revolutionized the way we create content—be it text, images, audio, or even code. At the heart of this transformation lies the art of crafting and optimizing prompts to elicit consistent and high-quality responses from these models.
What is Prompt Engineering?
Prompt Engineering is the process of designing and refining text inputs (prompts) to achieve specific application objectives with AI models. Think of it as a two-step journey:
Designing the Initial Prompt: Creating the initial input for the model to achieve the desired result.
Refining the Prompt: Continuously adjusting the prompt to enhance the quality of the responses.
Why is Prompt Engineering Important?
To understand the significance of Prompt Engineering, we need to delve into three key concepts:
Tokenization: The method by which the model perceives the prompt.
Base LLMs: The process through which the foundational model handles the prompt.
Instruction-Tuned LLMs: The way the model understands and executes tasks.
Key Reasons for the Importance of Prompt Engineering
Stochastic Nature of Model Responses: AI responses are inherently variable. The same prompt can produce different outcomes depending on the model or even at different times with the same model. Effective prompt engineering can reduce these variations by establishing more precise guidelines.
Mitigating Fabrications: Since models are trained on large yet finite datasets, they can sometimes generate inaccurate or fictitious responses. Prompt engineering techniques can help detect and address these fabrications by, for instance, requesting citations or reasoning from the AI.
Adapting to Model Capabilities: Newer models offer enhanced capabilities but also come with unique quirks and trade-offs in terms of cost and complexity. Prompt engineering helps create best practices that accommodate these model-specific characteristics, ensuring a scalable and efficient workflow.
Elements of a Prompt
A well-crafted prompt comprises several elements:
Context: Background information that sets the stage for the task.
Instructions: Clear directives guiding the AI on what to do.
Exemplary Input: Examples that illustrate the task.
Primary Content: The main input data for which a response is sought.
Output Indicator: Signals indicating the desired output format.
Each element plays a vital role in guiding the AI system to perform specific tasks, such as providing a sentiment analysis for an input sentence.
Techniques in Prompt Engineering
Prompt Engineering employs a variety of techniques, each suited to different scenarios:
Zero-Shot Learning: The model generates responses without specific examples, relying solely on pre-training data. This is useful when labeled data is impractical or unavailable.
Few-Shot Learning: Providing the model with a few examples to help it understand and perform a specific task. This is beneficial when limited data is available or quick adaptation to new tasks is needed.
System Messages and Roles: Pre-set instructions that guide the AI’s responses, ensuring consistency and alignment with user goals. Assigning specific roles to the AI allows it to simulate different personas and provide contextually relevant responses.
Conclusion
Prompt Engineering is a rapidly evolving field within AI that offers innovative ways to interact with AI systems. It represents a significant advancement in our ability to harness the power of AI, providing us with tools to achieve more accurate, reliable, and contextually appropriate responses. As we continue to explore and refine the techniques of Prompt Engineering, we are not only enhancing the capabilities of AI systems but also paving the way for more seamless human-AI collaboration.
The importance of Prompt Engineering cannot be overstated. It helps mitigate the inherent variability and potential inaccuracies in AI responses, ensures adaptability across different model capabilities, and unlocks new applications and use cases. By mastering this skill, we move closer to realizing the full potential of AI, making it an indispensable part of our technological future.
So, whether you’re an AI researcher, a developer, or simply an enthusiast, delving into the intricacies of Prompt Engineering is a worthwhile endeavor. It’s a testament to the incredible progress we’ve made in AI research and a glimpse into the exciting future that lies ahead. As we continue to refine our understanding and techniques, the possibilities are boundless, and the journey is just beginning.

Deprecation of SQL Trace and SQL Server Profiler?
I saw this on LinkedIn. Is it true and where can we get more info? Gracias
SQL Trace and SQL Server Profiler are deprecated. The Trace namespace that contains the Microsoft SQL Server Trace and Replay objects are also deprecated.”
We’ve all seen the warning above. Use Extended Events instead.
Profiler and SQL Server Trace are hard tools to replace. Especially when you’ve been using them for years. And learned how to use them well enough to not bring down a production server in the middle of the day.

Optimizations for windowed games makes my PC shut down
Hi everyone,
Many people have suggested that I turn on the following setting to improve my gaming experience however this setting has resulted in nothing but pain.
When I turn this setting on everything is fine until I try to tab in between my different monitors a few times (I have a 1440p, 60hz main monitor and two other 1080p, 60hz monitors, games are normally ran on my 1440p monitor). If I go from my game to one of my other monitors, and then back to my game in somewhat casual but quick succession my system will power down and restart.
When this happens there is no error. No GPU driver timeout. No crash dump. Not even a single event in Event Viewer (one would expect errors there but there is none, not even information level events)
This issue also has persisted through multiple full OS re-imaging from a new boot media which lends me to think that it might be hardware or system configuration related.
My system has the following specifications:
Windows 11 Pro 23H2 (OS Build 22631.3880)
Ryzen 5 3600 (not overclocked, PBO not enabled, running on default out of box settings, up to date chipset drivers)
Radeon RX 6700 XT (not overclocked, running on default out of box settings, up to date drivers)
X570 Chipset motherboard (ASUS x570 Pro, BIOS is of the latest release)
Corsair RM 850x 850W (80 Plus Gold certified)
Please note that I have also verified that I am neither thermal throttling nor am I getting anywhere near high temps under full system stress test. My peak temperatures are less than 80C on both GPU and CPU.
I have validated the CPU, Memory and GPU through a lot of benchmarks and stress testing. No errors from them and all of them passed every test.
Has anyone else ran into this issue and is there a solution?
I’ve scoured the internet for a solution but I was unable to find one.. all I find is posts saying how great this option is and how to turn it on.

Multiple choice – searching any part of the text
Hi there,
I am new to Sharepoint, and trying to figure something out that I assume is simple.
I have a column in an item form that is multiple choice, with many options.
When a user is creating a new item, and are choosing an option in this column, I’d like them to be able to start typing any part of the choice, and have it come up.
By default, it searches only in the exact order you type, and you have to correctly type the first letters of the choice.
For example:
For the option “Computer Services 107” – If they start typing Com, or Ser, or 107, I’d like it to jump to this option. Currently, unless they type Com – nothing comes up.
Possible?
Thanks,
Amber

Every other row is blank when downloading .csv files
When viewing .csv files with Notepad, everything looks great.
However, when I open these files, every other row is blank including the header row.
Is the problem on my end with various format selections, or the party sending me these files with, perhaps, and extra line feed tacked onto the end of each record?
Getting rid of every other blank line is manually time consuming and should not be there in the first place.
Thank you for any suggestions.

Comments on pages turning itself on
Is anyone else experiencing this?
For about 3 weeks, definitely since the changes to SPO page editing were rolled out, the Comments feature on SharePoint pages has been toggling itself on when I edit existing pages.
It doesn’t always happen.It doesn’t matter if I was the last person to edit or not. Now I have to scroll to the bottom of every page that I edit, whether or not I actually made changes, and check to make sure that this is toggled off.
This behavior was present a few years ago. It is very frustrating. Any feedback would be appreciated.

XLook Up
I have 3 workbooks. One called PO number system and one for each project manager.
Workbook 1 – PO Number system
Workbook 2 – Marc
Workbook 3 – Kyle
On the PO Number System, Column A is dropdown for project manager name.
Column B is PO number (generated from formula tied to Customer List in same workbook)
I want the project manager to be able to fill in the remainder of the columns (C-K) and it automatically fill in on their corresponding workbook – if Column A2 on PO Number System Workbook says Marc, then I want Marc’s workbook to automatically fill in everything associated with that line 2 from the PO Number System Column. If it doesn’t say Marc’s name, then nothing happens to his spreadsheet. If A2 says Kyle, then everything should fill in on Kyle’s workbook.
Spreadsheets attached for reference.

Booking Appointment Graph API Update No Longer Updates Service Name
The service name property of an appointment was previously editable per docs and testing.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/bookingappointment-update?view=graph-rest-1.0
Now when an update occurs via API, the service name completely resets to the default service name of the appointments service ID. You can still pass the service name when creating and appointment via the API, but any updates will break it. Anyone else experiencing this issue?

Linking a project to a porfolio
We have five project portfolios consisting of 7-25 sub-projects. Recently, we added a project online to our desktop 2019 version to allow project managers access to their project files. In the past, if we updated a single project, its respective portfolio would automatically be updated. Since we started using Project Online, we get errors when we update projects. Does the online project interfere with the desktop version when working with project portfolios?
Thanks.

Unable to pass employment verification, and now the process has been ended!
Hello,
I’ve been trying to get past the “employment verification” step for almost a month now. In the “fix now” menu, I was asked to provide the domain registration receipt, which I’ve submitted multiple times. I opened a ticket and was advised to change my email address to something non-generic, which I did. However, I haven’t received any further updates. I’ve followed up multiple times, only to receive the same automated response: “We’re looking into your issue and will provide an update.” Today, I received an email stating that after several unsuccessful attempts to verify my information, the verification process has been terminated. This is very frustrating, as all my information is legit, and there seems to be no reason my profile shouldn’t be approved.
Please assist, as opening tickets doesn’t seem to move the process forward at all.
Thank you!

FAQs from Mastering the Marketplace: Developing your virtual machine offer
Developing your virtual machine offer is a webinar offered regularly through the Mastering the Marketplace series. This session reviews the required technical configurations to make Virtual Machine apps and how to publish virtual machines offers to the Azure marketplace.
Looking for additional guidance with Virtual Machines? An Azure technical expert will take you through:
A brief overview of what a virtual Machine offer type is.
How to publish a Virtual machine offer and integrate the solution from the Azure Portal tool to Partner center.
How to setup Tenants.
How to create different plans to best suit your customers’ needs
How to use Cloud-init within the Azure Portal.
Attendees can also participate in a short Q&A following the session.
Below is a list of recently asked questions from this session.
Q1. Once I published the image to the gallery, does it make sense to keep the generalized VM around (if yes, then for what purpose?) or may I delete it?
A: You can delete the image after the offer is published live on the marketplace. At full publish, MS maintains a registry of your images, so you no longer have to hold on to it.
Q2. Does the standard Microsoft Marketplace agreement work both for transactable and non-transactable?
A: Yes it does. It simply is an option for your T&C if you don’t have your own.
Q3. Last time we used the Direct Shared Gallery it was in Preview and sharing was severely limited (only a few tenants and subscriptions). What is the situation now?
A: As of August 2024 it still has these limitations. You can share it across subscriptions on the same tenant but not across tenants. If that doesn’t work, you can use a vhd link to publish the VM offer.

New Shared Channels Grayed Out
Hello,
We’re having an issue as of this morning where Shared Channels do not seem to take when created. When I try to create a Shared Channel in the Admin Center it doesn’t show up in the list of channels, even when I go to manage the Team through the Teams app and look at the channels that way.
If I or a user creates a Shared Channel in Teams through the app it shows only for the person who created it, but it’s grayed out, you cannot interact with it, and does not appear in the list of channels when managing the Team through the app or the Admin Center.
Standard and Private channels are working as expected. I tried on multiple Teams to make sure it wasn’t an issue with a certain Team. I checked all the settings I could think of that could be blocking it even though none of them should have changed since the last time I was able to successfully create a Shared Channel.
Any idea as to what is going on? Anyone else experiencing this?
Update: They all decided to show up, but now I can’t delete any of the ones we created while trying to get it to work.
